The Crimson River Review and a Free Kindle Book (Dec 6-8)

The first three books of the Mysterious Ways series followed the adventures of Charlie Smith in the late 1800s, as he came of age, sought - and sometimes fought for - his fortune, and learned who to trust and who not to trust. Now, The Crimson River fast forwards to 21st-Century Denver, with Charlie Smith's descendant as a main character, and with flashbacks to the late 19th Century. The plot involves a hunt for buried treasure based on clues found in Charlie's diary. Beloved characters from the first three books enter the picture again. They struggle against greedy antagonists and their own conflicted motives. The reader is kept guessing with plot twists that provide suspense and intrigue as well as romance and inspiration.

The author, Donna, says she is "the mother of three grown daughters, the mother-in-law of two wonderful men, and the grandmother of three of the world's sweetest boys." She and her husband, Don, live in Pueblo, Colorado with their boxer, Cheyenne. Donna enjoys living in the area where "Charlie lived." She has dedicated her time to her writing ministry; but in her free time, she likes to golf, go boating, and explore the colorful state of Colorado. Her desire is to convey God's love through her writing.

I really enjoyed this series. These books have a great message in them. They are also good for a variety of ages from elementary to adults. I read the first book last winter and plan on re-reading it to my children. I believe my son (age 7) will enjoy Charlie's story.

As a gift to the readers the Publisher is offering the first book in this frontier series White as Snow FREE on Amazon Kindle Dec 5-8.

*I received this book from Cladach Publishing for my review and participation on the Fall Book Fling. All opinions are my own.*
